The Southeastern Young Alumni Charitable Foundation (SEYA) was formed by young alumni of the various schools within the Southeastern Conference; however, young alumni from all schools and backgrounds are welcome to participate. SEYA's goal is to raise money for pediatric cancer research. The Monroe Carell, Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt was chosen as the benefactor as one of the nation's best pediatric hospitals for researching methodologies to cure and treat cancer in children and adolescents. It is exciting to know that we can impact one of the best pediatric hospitals in the world, support an SEC affiliate in Vanderbilt University, and see our efforts impacting the Nashville region. Like anyone who has been impacted by cancer, we aspire to be a very small part of finding a cure.
Upcoming dates for SEYA: The Affair to Care: The 2010 Affair to Care will be held at aVenue in downtown Nashville on Saturday, January 30, at 7 p.m. Young professionals from all around Nashville and across the Southeast are invited to be a part of this annual benefit. Burning Las Vegas will provide the entertainment again for this year's event. The event will also include a silent auction, hors d'oeuvres, and open wine & spirits bar.
